Thank you Andre and Val, I was asking about the Blind version, because I know someone who is Deaf and Blind and I think this person would benefit so much if he had access to SignWriting - maybe a tactile-print-out of SignWriting - Perhaps a future project someone could work on... Andre, I have been looking into your Puddle - Dicitonary and Literature - How many people use these Puddles please - I will be mentioning your work in my dissertation, so I need to have a number of writers for these Puddles. Thank you and hope you resolve the problem with the interface..I'm sorry I don't know how to help with that. maria > Hi Val and everyone, > > Yes, I am using Safari.
